I can't wait to finish this truck up so I can start my new project. It's going to be my daily driver in the summer and I'm going to it up with all used parts. I'm going to try and make the paint look old on it and burn through on the edges to make the paint look thin in spots. The tops going to stay with rips and all, it's going to be a blast to drive and not worry about where I take it. I'll have the body done in a couple of months.

black it is, purchased the paint for it this morning $45.00 for a gallon(lol). This machinery paint is awesome and cheap, but works perfect for this project. Also ordered the black stripes for it on ebay off CudaJoe, black side stripes with out the r/t for $35.00. Also orderd white stripes for my white challenger just to make it a little different as well. I'm going to have hardly any thing in it. It's going to be the perfect car to beat around in. I'm going to look at a bunch of pictures of survivor cars and figure out where I need to burn through on the paint to make it look like it's been on the car for a while. I got to figure out a way to age the side stripe on the car as well. I heard of some people taking heat guns to them. This is going to be wicked fun can hardly wait to start it.

I have a nice rebuilt 318 that was in my warlock that I'm going to stick in it. It runs really nice. I figured that would be great engine to stick in incase my wife want to drive it around, plus it should be pretty good on gas.
